On One Of The Most Important Measures Things Are Getting Much Worse For Romney

The Wall Street Journal and NBC collaborated on a poll with a lot of fascinating findings.

See that?

Fully one third of respondents basically think Mitt Romney doesn’t care about average people, and that’s up from one quarter just a few months ago.

The poll isn’t exactly precise as a predictive tool- because it sampled only “800 adults” instead of likely voters, but it is clear that Romney’s awkwardness about his personal wealth is hurting him. He looks out of touch.
